Judicial conference results in small new eviction case delays

The Cook County First District (downtown) eviction judges will be participating in a judicial conference during the week of April 4-8, 2016, so landlords filing eviction actions this week at the Daley Center looking for a two week court date will find that they are not going to be able to get a two week date.  Court will still be on but with a short staff, so eviction cases already scheduled will continue during that week.  Things should get back to normal shortly after that.
